Before I switched to software engineering, as a licensed CPA, my first job was as an External Auditor for the top 1 firm in my country (biggest in terms of market share and human resource share). It became apparent to me that, even though I and my colleagues, who were hired in roughly the same time frame as me, have the same job description, our experiences within the firm vastly differed. I know this because I had 4 roommates who were working at the same firm, with the same job title, but under different Partners. P.S. I guess this is one of the non-legal related reasons why companies don't give feedback, they'd like to avoid being featured in hackernews, I presume. EDIT: I always forget driving my point home after crafting a lengthy comment. My point is, I can almost guarantee that someone out there has the exact opposite of your experience w.r.t. the hiring process of twitter.
